Review of All Emergent Trees

Summaries

The emergent Tree frameworks have now been presented as forms of willingness-driven mental organization useful in a variety of types of endeavour. These may be activated at times of endeavour breakdown and are geared to fostering a renewal and recovery of the relevant situation.

It also seems that each of these frameworks may be forced into use in ways that overpower a person's natural tendencies, with the potential for abuse or harm.

The Tree frameworks are summarized here for ease of comparison. Links are provided to enable review of the full account. The summaries are organised in a matrix at the bottom of the page.

Speculation: Everyone's is expected to perform to deadline. Although we use communication to create our reality, and commonly use it to deliberately distort matters, we cannot stop time passing and the consequences of failing to perform. Perhaps we need to fully understand the significance of time.

Framework Application: You as «Everyman» or, less satisfactorily, as an «Instrument».

Tree of All PH-L3s

Why PH-L3s? Because, given intensity of rejection and disbelief, the necessary pressure is Acceptability (from RL3).

Process: The framework assumes you are prepared to consider the feelings and views of others, and make a genuine and willing adaptation: which is about Change-RL3, which drives PH-L3s.

Focus: KL7 because significance (L3-communication) of key factors, previously ignored out of self-interest (yours or others) or rejected as irrelevant due to biases (yours or others), must be recognized and respected selflessly.

Tree of All PH-L4s

Why PH-L4s? Because, given all the discord and bruised feelings, the necessary pressure is Well-Being (from RL4).

Process: The framework assumes that group members willingly tolerate inner discomfort due to their genuine differences: Experience-RL4, which drives PH-L4s.

Focus: KL1 because responses drawn from repertoires (L4-action) of rival sub-groups, previously timed to provoke, must now be relied upon to be used at the right time to prevent flare-ups and contribute to a restoration of harmony.

Speculation: Knowledge of differences in the benefits/rights and demands/costs amongst different sub-groups is the basis for complaints of discrimination. Inquiry can result in correcting misconceptions as well as in finding and monitoring viable compromises.

Framework Application: You as a «Diplomat». Not «politician», because that label emphasizes the exercise of power and possibly implies self-seeking behaviour.

Speculation: Pursuit of purposes is the basis for experiencing autonomy. While objectives determining work activities and can be yours alone, the values determining work arrangements (context) are social. A context that disturbs the exercise of autonomy needs rational and determined organisation.

Framework Application: You as an «Organiser». Note that the organiser is not necessarily the leader.

Speculation: Your identity depends on stability and you have to manage a constant adaptation to an ever-changing environment. But certain disruptions can interfere with your coping mechanisms and cause mental destabilization.

Framework Application: You as a «Character».The issue here is your constructed uniqueness.
